SUBJECT: CP 94-01 (A); Planning Area B-1 Resubmittal CITY OF CARLSBAD
PLANNING DEPT.
Dear Eric:
Accompanying this letter is the resubmittal package for the Condominium Permit
Amendment (CP 94-01 (A)) for Planning Area B-1 in the Poinsettia Shores Master Plan.
The resubmittal package is intended to address the single incomplete item as well as
the several issues of concern.
Update
The Condominium Permit amendment has been modified from the previously submitted
package. The most substantial modification is the elimination of the request for
changes to the architecture for the area identified as financial parcels A and C (Watt
Homes). Watt Homes intends to build the approved product for their portion of
Planning Area B-1. Therefore, all architecture and documentation referencing financial
parcels A and C are now not a part of this Condominium Permit amendment. The
remaining financial parcels B and D (Concordia Homes) will continue with the
requested amendment to the Condominium Permit.
Watt Homes and Concordia Homes are jointly moving forward with the processing of
the final map for Planning Area B-1. It is our understanding that the processing of the
CP amendment for financial parcels B and D will not affect the processing of the final
map pursuant to the following: 1) any request for substantial conformance must be
approved by both Planning and Engineering and, 2) no phasing of the final map will be
permitted without a tentative map amendment. Since both items can be accommodated
by the developers of Planning Area B-1, the processing of the final map should not be
affected by the CP amendment.
Incomplete Item
The single incomplete item was regarding the phasing of the project with multiple final
maps. Accompanying this letter are signed statements from the property owners
ensuring that the final map will be recorded as a single unit. These signed statements
2386 Faraday Avenue • Suite 120 « Carlsbad • CA 92008 • (619)438-1465 • Fax: (619)438-2443
satisfies the only item that deemed that application incomplete. With these signed
statements, the application should now be deemed complete.
Issues of Concern
The following describes how the issues of concern have been addressed.
Item 1. The original Condominium Permit amendment submittal included
modifications to parcels A and C. Based on the original submittal, it was
determined that the CP amendment must be processed as a major CP
amendment. However, since the resubmittal is requesting modification to
the architecture for only parcels B and D and the single story floor plan
was eliminated, a new 10% change analysis was prepared. The new
percent change analysis was conducted on a unit-by-unit comparison
between the approved and proposed project and demonstrates that all
changes to yards, coverage, height, open space or landscaping is less
than 10%. Therefore, the determination to allow for the processing of a
minor amendment can be made.
Item 2. References to the financial parcels are purely for descriptive purposes
only and are not to infer that there will be multiple final maps.
Accompanying this letter are signed statements from all property owners
within Planning Area B-1 assuring that there will be no phasing or multiple
final maps.
Item 3. Since it is anticipated that the final map will be recorded prior to the need
for model homes within parcels B and D, there is no need to identify the
location of the model home complex. The location of the model home
complex for the product in parcels A and C will be identified at the time of
the request for building permits for these models by Watt Homes.
Item 4. The floor plans have been renumbered to reduce any confusion regarding
the location of each floor plan. Plan numbers 1, 2 and 3 will remain as
the approved product type that will be built in parcels A and C. Plan
numbers 4, 5 and 6 are the proposed product type for parcels B and D.
The site plan as well as the floor plans and elevations have been revised
to show the new plan numbers.
Item 5. The floor plan showing the TV/media niche within the fireplace
encroachment area has been eliminated.
Item 6. All references to a tentative map amendment have been removed.
Item 7. Since there are no changes to any lot lines or streets, no substantial
changes to grading from the approved project and the proposed project is
within 10% change, the exclusive use area is the same for both the
proposed and the approved projects. Therefore, a comparison of
exclusive use areas is not necessary.
Item 8. The total square footage of the approved and the proposed project is
provided on the accompanying spreadsheet titled "Total Square Footage"
Item 9. No comment is needed.
Item 10. The note regarding multiple phases has been removed and sign
statements are provided to assure that there is no intent to process
multiple final maps with this project.
Item 11. The requested spot elevations are provided on the site plan.
Item 12. The index map on sheet 1 provides the requested information regarding
the different product type locations.
Summary
The accompanying resubmittal package contains a revised project description, three
revised site plans, three revised floor plans and elevations, the revised 10% change
analysis, the total square footage spreadsheet and the signed statements indicating
that there will not be any phasing of the final map. All of these documents and
information should allow for the application to be deemed complete, the determination
made that the project should be processed as a minor CP amendment and address all
issues of concern.
Upon your review of the accompanying materials, please feel free to give me a call if
you need any additional information or if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Stan Weiler
